Oh, I’ve got plenty in my portfolio right now, just like @Dividendenopi 😂
The problem is, the market is there, but customers are holding back because of the situation:
Desert Control AS
Sandnes, Norway, October 7, 2026 – Desert Control (OSE: DSRT), a leading company in the field of soil
and water protection technology, announces that it is withdrawing its
previously published revenue guidance for 2026.
The company is withdrawing its outlook because sales cycles
have been prolonged by macroeconomic headwinds in the U.S. agricultural sector and the ongoing
conflict in the Middle East. In addition,
delayed data readings in some pilot projects have prolonged commercial discussions.
"While our record number of customer pilot projects in the first half of 2026 showed very positive results in most cases
and our customers remain engaged in
expansion discussions, major commercial rollouts have been delayed as our
customers have to cope with the significantly increased costs of agricultural inputs, particularly
fertilizers and diesel fuel, and need to gather additional data on the effects of LNC on soil
health and crop yields before making major capital investments during a time of
uncertainty. “LNC is active in the field, and we are seeing treated areas
grow, but unfortunately, the transition to larger contracts has been delayed,”
says James Thomas, CEO of Desert Control. “Overall interest in LNC remains high,
with continued new customer acquisition and the launch of pilot projects."
The company has initiated a review of its sales processes and outlook and expects to provide a detailed business update during its investor update call
scheduled for November 19
.

@Raketentoni Thank you! I'm just enjoying the process, and I'll draw another 1-2 batches by November. Then we'll see how it turns out.

That's not good news. I'd be cautious for now.
